The manufacturer struggling to turn out enough jukeboxes to satisfy besotted vinyl fans.

Climate change dominated the headlines this week, with teenage campaigner Greta Thunberg's visit to protesters in London and speech to parliament.

But afterwards, air pollution soared so high that one app that monitors air quality was warning people to keep children indoors and close the windows. So what practically can we do to tackle it? The environmental journalist Tim Smedley began researching that after the birth of his first child five years ago, and he's made it the subject of his first book 鈥 鈥淐learing the Air鈥.
